Christopher J. Addison

Christopher Addison, beloved husband of Kathleen (McKenna), passed away on January 10, 2018, after a brief illness. He was born on March 10, 1949 in Fall River, and graduated from Durfee High School in 1967. He earned an associate's degree from San Diego State. He served in the US Navy, on a patrol boat in Viet Nam. While there, he earned a National Defense Service Medal. He and Kathy married in 1982 and had 35 wonderful years together. They lived in Las Vegas for 20 years, and moved back to Fall River in October 2017.
Chris was an avid fan of all Boston sports, with many t-shirts and hats to prove it. His greatest passion was playing golf, winning the Governor's Cup at Montaup Country Club in 1990. His outgoing personality and ability to talk to anyone made him a great salesman.
Chris was predeceased by his parents William "Bill" Addison and Eileen (Conroy) Addison, and his twin sister, Christine. He leaves his wife Kathy and a brother Jeff. His extended family included many brothers- and sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews.
Chris was a wonderful husband and brother. His sense of humor was legendary. His family and friends will always remember that mischievous smile. Our lives were so much better for knowing him.
